The sum of three numbers is 11 . The sum of twice the first​ number, 5 times the second​ number, and 6 times the third number is
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

4, 6, 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this problem using a system of equations:

1) a + b + c = 11

2) 2a + 5b + 6c = 44

3) 4a - b = 10

First, we can substitute the value of b from equation #3 into equation #1:

b = 4a - 10

a + (4a - 10) + c = 11

5a - 10 + c = 11

5a + c = 21

c = 21 - 5a

Now, we can plug the values of b and c into equation #2, as b and c are represented in terms of a:

2a + 5(4a - 10) + 6(21 - 5a) = 44

2a + 20a - 50 + 126 - 30a = 44

-8a + 76 = 44

-8a = -32

a = 4

b = 4a - 10 = 4(4) - 10 = 6

c = 21 - 5a = 21 - 5(4) = 1

the gasoline gauge on a van initially read 1/8 full. When 15 gallons were added to the tank the gauge read 3/4 full. How many mo
Nostrana [21]
So 15 gallons of gas brought it from 1/8 full to 3/4 full.

Let's change 3/4 to the equivalent fraction 6/8  so that the denominators are the same.    (3/4 = 6/8)

So 15 gallons of gas brought it from 1/8 to 6/8   Those 15 gallons must be 5/8 of the tank's capacity   6/8 - 1/8 = 5/8

So 15 is 5/8 of what number?  (This will tell us the capacity of the whole tank)

15 = 5/8n
Divide both sides by 5/8 (remembering to multiply by the reciprocal 8/5)
15 ÷ 5/8  = 15 x  8/5  = 18

So the tank holds 24 gallons and (since it is 3/4 full or has 18 gallons) it needs 6 gallons to fill the tank.

Check - at first  1/8 full (1/8 of 24 = 3)  So we started with 3 gallons. 15 gallons added to the 3 gallons is 18 gallons.  Now the tank is 6/8 (3/4 full).  The remaining 1/4 (2/8) of a tank is the difference between 18 and it's capacity (24 gallons)  so it will need 6 gallons to fill it up..

Suppose a triangle has 2 sides of length 3 and 4 and that the angle between these two sides is 60 degrees. what is the length of
shusha [124]

Answer:

\boxed{b.\:\:\:\sqrt{13}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the third side of the triangle be h\: units.


We can apply the cosine rule to find h.


h^2=3^2+4^2-2(3)(4)\cos(60\degree)

We evaluate to obtain;

\Rightarrow h^2=9+16-24(\frac{1}{2})


\Rightarrow h^2=25-12


\Rightarrow h^2=13

We take the positive square root of both sides to obtain;

\Rightarrow h=\sqrt{13}


The correct answer is B.
